Top 10 of 3,582 law firms for Forfeiture of Lease, Commercial Property

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Forfeiture of a lease covers what happens when a tenant breaches a lease covenant or falls into rent arrears, allowing a landlord to end the tenancy or recover possession in England. A solicitor will outline the available routes, including pursuing relief from forfeiture or enforcing re-entry, and will advise on the timing and steps required to protect the landlord’s or tenant’s position. Real-world effects include potential possession orders, rent recovery, and decisions on whether alternative remedies should be pursued. The work reflects the balance between contractual covenants and statutory safeguards in English property law.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Forfeiture involves navigating breaches, possessor rights, and the possibility of relief from forfeiture under the Law of Property Act 1927. A solicitor handles drafting and serving notices, lodging proceedings in the county court, and coordinating with the landlord or tenant to secure a possession order, a relief application, or a negotiated settlement. The process often hinges on timely discovery of breaches, proof of arrears, and court discretion on relief and costs.

We were recommended Baldwin and Robinson by my sister and her partner who had recently used them, and from the get go they were very professional and knowledgeable, while communicating clearly about what was required from us. As this was our first property purchase, it was very helpful to have a solicitors who were so easily able to answer our questions, and take us through the process of purchasing. Tiegan in particular was great throughout, and on a few occasions when we experienced delays out of our control, kept us updated with clear communication. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Baldwin & Robinsons services.
